A beam of plane polarised light falls no...

A beam of plane polarised light falls normally on a polariser (cross sectional area `3 xx 10^(-4)m^(2)`) which rotates about the axis of the ray with an angular velocity of `31.4 rad//s`. Find the energy of light passing through polariser per revolution and the intensity of emergent beam, if flux of energy of the incident ray is `10^(-3) W`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Here, cross sectional area of the polariser,
`A = 3 xx 10^(-4)m^(2)`
Angular velocity of polariser, `omega = 3.14 rad//s`.
Flux of energy of incident ray `=10^(-3)W`
`:.` Intensity of incident light,
`I_(0) = ("flux of energy")/("Area") = (10^(-3))/(3 xx 10^(-4) W//m^(2)`
Intensity of emergrnt polarised light,
`I = (I_(0))/(2) = (10^(-3))/(2 xx 3 xx 10^(-4)) = (5)/(3) W//m^(2)`
Energy of the light passing through the polariser per revolution ,brgt `W = I xx A xx T = I xx A xx (2pi)/(omega)`
`= (5)/(3) xx 3 xx 10^(-4) xx (2 xx 3.14)/(3.14) = 10^(-4) J`
